I am a quiet, single, animal-loving, non-smoking, former language teacher, presently living in Toronto.I was born in South London and lived and worked in Surrey and Sussex before emigrating to Canada. I love walking, reading, going to the cinema and visiting new places.I am always happy to spend time with animals and enjoy meeting pets and their people. One of my greatest joys is greeting all the dogs, dog owners, cats and other creatures whever I am.I spend a good part of the year in the UK, where I was born and still have many friends. I am a world traveller and have visited almost 30 countries with many more to see.I am extremely happy to be retired and to pursue my two passions: animals and travel.

Why I want to house sit

As my two cats , siblings Paddy and Percy, sadly passed away at 17 and 19, I want to fill the void by taking care of other people's pets. In that way, I can return all the love and joy animals animals have given me throughout my life. Housesitting also gives me the opportunity to travel all over the world, meet like-minded people, experience new places and make wonderful memories.

My experience

I grew up in a family with cats, dogs and budgies and have always had pets of my own. I have experience of taking care of them throughout their life cycles and ensuring they had the best care possible.When asked, I jump at the chance to take care of my friends' cats, dogs, birds and homes whenever and wherever needed. A few of my experiences have been serendipitous. While visiting a friend in Spain, I unexpectedly ended up taking care of her cat and villa for ten days when she had to leave suddenly. The cat and I had a great time.A chance encounter at the Eurostar terminal led to a wonderful opportunity to look after two older dogs in Toronto. Since then, I have taken care of them several times. I also became involved with Lion's Foundation Dog Guides Canada while at a fundraising walk in Toronto. As I did not have a dog, I was given a beautiful poodle puppy companion. This led to many happy days of volunteering and of taking care of Future Dog Guide puppies when needed. I have met many wonderful dogs and people this way.Before retiring, I had the opportunity to take Future Dog Guide puppies to work and introduce them to people who had little experience of dogs, let alone service dogs. It was a joy to share these wonderful creatures with my students, which helped them overcome their fear of dogs.You can rest assured knowing that your pets and home will always be my priority.

I have known Georgina for close to 30 years and she has always been an extremely supportive and loyal friend. She stands out with her kindness, her eagerness to be of help, her reliability and her conscientous approach to everything she does in life. Although I do not have any pets myself, I can attest to her intense love of animals, which becomes apparent in her accounts of her interactions with them. Georgina has looked after my son with special needs many times over the years and I have never had a moment of worry about his safety and wellbeing in her care. I can highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted person to care for their home and beloved pets.

Georgina stayed with our puppy in our home for 2 weeks in February. She was amazing!! She treated Lexi as her own and took for many walks a day and even trained her to go to the bathroom on demand. My house was clean when I returned and Lexi was very sad to see her go. Georgina is a quiet, neat and her love for animals really shows. You and your animal are lucky to have her stay!! Thanks Georgina! We would love having you back to care for our fur baby again!!

I have known Georgina for over forty years and during that time she has frequently looked after my dogs and at one time cats. She is looking after my two dogs plus my daughter's dog for the first week in August this year which means I shall be worry free whilst in Italy! She is totally reliable, trustworthy and competent to look after pets and the house and I would not hesitate to recommend her as a house/pet sitter.

I have known Georgina for many years and she is one of the few people that I would trust to take care of my lovebird Pirlo when I am away.He is rather nervous but loves being with Georgina as she talks to him a lot and lets him sit on her head. I never worry when he is with her because I know that he is in good hands. She makes sure that he gets his exercise and even told me about some special food that would be good for him. She has all the the attributes necessary to be a perfect petsitter. She is responsible, and trustworthy and I can always rely on her. She is gentle, patient. She genuinely loves and cares for animals. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

I first met Georgina 6 years ago. We are both volunteers with Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides. I foster future dog guide puppies and on different occasions Georgina has puppysat for me (in order to puppysit a future dog guide, one must be vetted and willing to follow very specific guidelines ).

Georgina is experienced, reliable, caring and always keeps the needs of the pets foremost in mind.

Because she travels frequently, Georgina has not fostered a future dog guide puppy herself, as that requires a year-long commitment, but she is always happy to puppysit for myself and others. As well, she generously volunteers in other capacities.

Georgina is a very trustworthy person and I do not hesitate to recommend her as a trusted housesitter.

Why I want to house sit

As my two cats , siblings Paddy and Percy, sadly passed away at 17 and 19, I want to fill the void by taking care of other people's pets. In that way, I can return all the love and joy animals animals have given me throughout my life. Housesitting also gives me the opportunity to travel all over the world, meet like-minded people, experience new places and make wonderful memories.

My experience

I grew up in a family with cats, dogs and budgies and have always had pets of my own. I have experience of taking care of them throughout their life cycles and ensuring they had the best care possible.When asked, I jump at the chance to take care of my friends' cats, dogs, birds and homes whenever and wherever needed. A few of my experiences have been serendipitous. While visiting a friend in Spain, I unexpectedly ended up taking care of her cat and villa for ten days when she had to leave suddenly. The cat and I had a great time.A chance encounter at the Eurostar terminal led to a wonderful opportunity to look after two older dogs in Toronto. Since then, I have taken care of them several times. I also became involved with Lion's Foundation Dog Guides Canada while at a fundraising walk in Toronto. As I did not have a dog, I was given a beautiful poodle puppy companion. This led to many happy days of volunteering and of taking care of Future Dog Guide puppies when needed. I have met many wonderful dogs and people this way.Before retiring, I had the opportunity to take Future Dog Guide puppies to work and introduce them to people who had little experience of dogs, let alone service dogs. It was a joy to share these wonderful creatures with my students, which helped them overcome their fear of dogs.You can rest assured knowing that your pets and home will always be my priority.
